Clouds neither have roots
nor branches and stands without any foundation. So is the space all naked-
neither supported nor rested and stands sans legs and hands! Thus, awareness is
beyond both colour and shape and its original nature is like space and its
basis is like the ephemeral clouds!
Mahamudra is dependent
upon nothing and it is always settled in unalloyed purity. On removing husk by
beating the sesame, oil- the essence(awareness) is extracted! Like space, awareness can be neither melted or frozen nor
added or subtracted and the nudity remain as it is. Whether the space is hidden
or unconcealed by the clouds, the original sky remains bare- completely nude.
Just like the space unborn out of empty sky without clouds- so is the awareness
unborn and untainted within the state of unborn mind.
Like a single candle dispelling the darkness of a night; a
single flash of clear mind erases the blindness of one's sin. Lo! Relax into
your intrinsic nature with no objective and rest in naked awareness- and that's
Mahamudra!

What is never born never
dies. When there is beginningless there is endless too.What is hidden right here
is also present right here. When one is in extremes the door to Samadhi still
prevails in the closed door. When one is over filled; the space for filling up
still exists within the occupied space. When a lake is darkened sans moon's
reflection, the brightness still exists in the presence of absence.
In sweetness lies the
sourness. What is uneven right there is also even right there. Where there is a
road, the destiny too is embedded in it. Where there is a cloud, the state of
cloudless also forms the formless. Under the pikes lies the plains and within
the plains lies the gorges. Within sadness lies the state of euphoricism. Where
there is a wall, there is always an exit in it !
Hello how are you?
ReplyDeleteMy name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near Madrid. I am a person very interested in knowing things related to the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc., in summary, I am a person who enjoys traveling , learning and respecting the diversity of people from all over the world.
I love to travel and know all the aspects mentioned in person, but unfortunately, since this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, I came up with a way to travel with imagination to all corners of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of stamps since this activity allows me to know in an original way some aspects such as fauna, flora, characters, monuments, etc. of all countries. As unfortunately, every day it is more difficult to get stamps, some time ago I started another collection in which my goal would be to get at least one letter from each country and territory with postal autonomy in the world. This modest objective is feasible to achieve in most countries, but unfortunately it is impossible to achieve in other different territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty, they are territories with small population or because any reason, their postal system is not working properly.
For all this I would like to ask you a small favor:
Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Bhutan? I understand perfectly that you think your blog is not the right place to ask this, and even, it is very probably that you will ignore my letter, but I would like to draw your attention about the difficulty that I have in receiving a letter from that country, besides, I do not know anyone or where to write in Bhutan in order to increase my collection. A letter for me is like a small souvenir, it's as if I had visited that country with my imagination and at the same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way of promoting a country in the world. My postal address is as follows:
Emilio Fernandez Esteban
Calle Valencia, 39
28903 Getafe (Madrid)
Spain
I would also like to invite you to visit my blog: www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com there, if you wish you can take a look at my collection and in this way understand in a more graphic way why I make this request.
Finally, I would like to thank you for the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my sincere wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your loved ones.
Sincerely
Emilio Fernandez
